Review: Perfect especially for the price - I had previously purchased an extremely cheap smaller keyboard thinking it would be good to teach myself to play. Turns out I was so very wrong, the small and awkwardly stiff keys and the simple lack of more keys wound up being extremely demotivating. Now I bought this Nektar 49 key and I immediately could tell this was the one. The build quality is pretty cheap feeling but not in a way that you'll notice while actually using it because the keys themselves feel great and theres no flexing or creeking! For being a fraction of the price for any other decent midi keyboard I cannot praise it enough, I liked it so much I bought the 61 key version which I found was the perfect size for most songs I want to play. Works great in Synthesia too as shown in the pictures!
Review: Amazing touch sensitivity - One of the best MIDI when it comes to touch sensitivity! I have several piano sample plug-ins and having the touch sensitivity works beautifully when I have to play an actual classical piano piece. Good quality and Sweetwater was definitely the place to buy it from. Thank you for your service.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the total length of an individual key?**
A: 5 3/8
3 3/8

**Q: Curious about the size of the keys. Could someone who owns one of these measure the exact total width of the 61 keys (from lowest to highest)?**
A: 32 13/16

**Q: Does this work with Ableton?**
A: Not really

**Q: can you plug in headphones to this?**
A: It's a MIDI controller only- it doesn't generate sound on it's own, so no, it doesn't have a headphone jack.  It needs to be plugged into a synthesizer module or a PC running a synthesizer application via USB (either of which would require it's own headphone jack) .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing touch sensitivity

One of the best MIDI when it comes to touch sensitivity! I have several piano sample plug-ins and having the touch sensitivity works beautifully when I have to play an actual classical piano piece. Good quality and Sweetwater was definitely the place to buy it from. Thank you for your service.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, almost great
*by M***1 on July 30, 2025*

I use this keyboard just for Speedy Entry with the music notation software Finale. I appreciate the effectiveness of the keyboard and the lightness of it, and the price was good, but the lowest key has never worked, and for about the first thirty seconds of use every time, it is not very responsive. Otherwise, I would give it a five-star rating.
